Subject Science

1] (i)What is the drawback of Rutherford atomic model ?
(ii) Mention the postulates Neils Bohr put forth to overcome the objections raised against
Rutherford's atomic model .
(iii) Chlorine occurs in nature in two isotopic forms, with atomic masses 35 u and 37 u in the
ratio of 3 : 1. Calculate the average atomic mass of chlorine atom.

2] (a) Calculate the molar mass of nitric acid (HNO3) (atomic masses of H=1u,O=16uand
N=14u)
(b) Calculate the no. of moles in 22 grams of carbon dioxide (CO2) (atomic masses of C=12u,
O=16u)
(c) Calculate the number of molecules of oxygen in 6.4 grams of oxygen. [Given N=6.02
1023 mole.]

3] Identify the following diagrams. Write the phylumdo they belong to? Write down the
characteristic features of each phylum


4] What happens when: (a) Buoyant Force exerted by the fluid is less
than the weight of the body?
(b) Buoyant Force exerted by the fluid is equal to the weight of the body?

5] Define kinetic energy and potential energy. Write an expression for K.E. of a body of mass m
moving with a speed v. Find the kinetic energy of a stone of 10 kg moving with a velocity of
10 m/s.

6] (a) State law of conservation of energy. Explain it with one example.
(b) Two girls each of weight 400 N (Four hundred N) climb up a rope through a height of 8
metres (eight metres). Girl A takes 20 (Twenty) seconds while Girl B takes fifty seconds to
accomplish this task. What is the power expended by each girl?
(c) An electric heater is rated 1500 watt. How much energy does it used in 10 hours(ten
hours)?

7] (a) Define relative density.
(b) If the relative density of a substance is less than 1, will it float or sink in water support
your answer? (Density of water =1000 kg m3)

8] (a) Give the mathematical relation between power, force and velocity.
(b) Can a body have energy, without having momentum? If yes, why?
(c) A car of mass 2000 kg is lifted up to a distance of 30 mby a crane in 1 minute. A second
crane does the same job in a 2 minutes. What is the power applied by each crane? Do the
cranes consume the same or different amount of fuel?

9] Name the group which is called Amphibians of Plant kingdom. Cite an example of this
group also mention one important feature of the same group.

10] Define work, energy and power. Give the SI units for each of the these quantities. A man
whose mass is 80 kg climbs up 30 steps of the stairs in 30 s. If each step is 12.5 cmin height,
calculate the power used in climbing the stairs, (g =10 m/s2).

atomof naturally occurring oxygen as one unit. State two reasons for this.

19] (a) If an atomcontains one electron and one proton, what will be the total charge on it?
